User Name

Specify the user name which Designer applies in cases when a user name value is required, for example, when you run a report which references the special field "User Name".

UI Scale

Specify the ratio using which to scale the Designer UI. The larger the ratio is, the larger the graphics and text you see on the Designer UI. If you are using JDK 11 or higher, you should specify an appropriate ratio based on your device requirements, in order to display the graphics and text on the Designer UI in the size you expect.

You can also customize the ratio by adding the "-Dsun.java2d.uiScale" parameter in the file JReport.bat stored in <install_root>\bin. Valid values for the parameter are: 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.25, and 2.5. If you specify the scale ratio via the parameter, Designer ignores the ratio that you set in the Options dialog box. The following shows an example of setting the parameter:

...%JAVAHOME%\bin\javaw.exe" @"%REPORTHOME%\bin\java.option" -Xms40m -Xmx1024m "-Dinstall.root=%REPORTHOME%" -classpath "%CLASSPATH%" -Dreporthome="%REPORTHOME%" -Dsun.java2d.uiScale=1.0 -Djreport.url.encoding="UTF-8" -Dlogireport.url.encoding="UTF-8" -Djavac_path="%JAVAHOME%\bin\javac.exe" ...

Query Editor Category

Use this category to specify the default properties of the Query Editor which you use for creating queries.

Options dialog box - Query Editor category

Auto join

You can specify the options for auto joins in this box.

  • Join on foreign keys
    Select to automatically join tables in a query through a reference from Table A to a primary key in Table B. For example, an order form in Table A shows information on purchases that are made by a customer with a primary key of CustomerID. The customer ID # refers to a record in Table B which lists a specific address, phone number, name, and so on for the customer. CustomerID in Table A is a foreign key because it links the customer's ordering information in Table A to the customer's information in Table B using the CustomerID field.
  • Join on primary keys with same names
    Select to automatically join tables in a query through a field or a combination of fields that uniquely and specifically identifies a record. For example, OrderID may be the primary key in a table for Orders and also for Payments.
  • Join on same name
    Select to automatically join tables in a query through a link between two columns of the same name in two different tables. This often creates many invalid joins such as Amount that appears in both tables.

Pre-join

You can specify the default settings for pre-joins in this box.

  • Show warning message when adding tables
    If you enable the Pre-join feature, when you add a table to a query, you may also need to add other tables in order to form a pre-join path. You can select this option to let Designer display the warning message in cases like this.

Preview Result Set

You can specify the default settings for previewing queries in this box.

  • Maximum Number of Records
    Specify the default total number of records to display when you preview a query.
  • Maximum Number of Records per Page
    Specify the default maximum number of records to display on one page when you preview a query.

Additional Options

You can specify some additional options in this box.

  • Show table names
    Select to display the table that each column belongs to in the criteria panel of the Query Editor.
  • Show mapping names
    Select to display the full name of the column in the criteria panel of the Query Editor.
  • Warn when Cartesian product exists
    Select to display a warning when a Cartesian exists. A Cartesian product is used when you add tables to a query with no join specifications.

    For example, Table A has three values: A, B, and C, and Table B has three values: 1, 2, and 3. Value A matches value 1, value B matches value 2, and so on. This is a specific match.

    A Cartesian product would have value A matching with 1, 2, and 3, and value B matching with 1, 2, and 3, and so on. Depending on the data values, Cartesian products can produce large datasets since each record in Table A matches every record in Table B.

  • Automatically add quotation marks on input values
    Select to enable Designer to add quote marks automatically after you type a String value into the second expression text box in the AND format when you specify certain criteria for the fields to be retrieved from the database.

    Select to allow Designer to remember the user information, so that it can sign you in to the Server automatically. You cannot select this option if you do not select "Remember connection information".

When both the connection and user information is remembered by Designer and the specified Server is started, when you want to connect to the Server to publish or get resources, Designer sets up the connection and signs you in automatically; otherwise, Designer displays the Connect to Logi Report Server dialog box for you to specify the connection and user information.
